Team Power

Post by oblomov »

I had this idea today while playing. It would be interesting to have the possibility to have "Team Powers". Basically, "Team Powers" means that tanks in a particular team have some sort of "automatic flag" (unless they get another one). For example, all Green tanks might have Jumping, all Red tanks might have Ricochet, etc. This would be particularly interesting in Rabbit games.

He means like the rabbit could have a special ability that the hunters didn't. The same thing could go for the hunters.

I think that the team power should be 4 giant bullets say 10 times bigger then normal bullets should go from each corner to the middle going through everything walls, pyramids and when they meet in middle create a shockwave.

Default innate powers.. I like it. That would be a very interesting feature if it were well balanced. But then you would have a lot more people switching teams to find the powerup they like.

how about a special power that is different based on the combinations of flags the whole team has.

That could really work. It'd be pretty complicated, but it handles the problem of balancing between the teams. So, would it be a majority thing, where if 51% of the people have a laser you get one by default too? Or maybe a random chance of drawing a special power weighted by the number that currently have it.
